4. What is OCS? Operational Contract Support The process of planning for and obtaining supplies, services, and construction from commercial sources in support of joint operations along with the associated contract support integration, contracting support and contractor management functions. . Contract Support Integration (CSI) Contracting Support (CS) Contractor Management (CM) The coordination and synchronization of contracted support executed in a designated operational area in support of the joint force. The coordination of contingency contracts and the execution of contracting authority to legally bind non-DoD resources in support of DoD operational requirements. The oversight and integration of contractor personnel and associated equipment providing support to the joint force in a designated operational area. • Plan Contract Support Integration • Validate/Prioritize requirements • Perform OCS knowledge management • Collaborate in boards, centers, cells and working groups • Conduct assessments and provide recommendations • Plan & organize for Contracting Support • Coordinate common contracting actions • Translate requirements into contract documents • Develop contracts • Award & administer contracts • Closeout contracts • Plan Contractor Management • Prepare for contractor deployment • Deploy/Redeploy contractors • Manage contractors • Sustain contractors

32. Joint Force Development The Armed Forces of the United States employs the joint development process to transform how it organizes and trains the Joint Force to execute worldwide missions to meet emerging challenges. Joint Force development prepares individual members and units of the Armed Forces to field a Joint Force that integrates service capabilities in order to execute assigned missions. Joint Force development is a knowledge-based and integrated enterprise encompassing joint doctrine, joint education, joint training, joint lessons learned, and joint concept development and assessment. Once validated and approved, concepts and solutions are actively transitioned via the force development process in order to institutionalize the solutions. JP 1
